Re: [ros-users] Bug in IKFastPlugin for 7DOF arms

I should add that the restoring the search along the redundant DOF should
find the solution that is closest to the seed when using searchPositionIK.
Since the intended design searches for new solution by stepping away from
the seed in discrete increments, the solution closest to the seed should be
found first. From that point of view maybe the two bugs are indeed the
same.
